If one sweet sums up modern Pick n Mix, it's probably this one.
Soft, chewy and packed with blue raspberry flavour, Fizzy Blue Bottles have become one of the UK's favourite sweets for good reason. The sour sugar coating adds just enough zing without taking over the fruity flavour.
They're usually one of the first sweets to disappear from any sharing bag.

- Soft gummy texture
- Light fizzy coating
Perfect for: Pick n Mix, parties and gifting.

Watermelon has become one of the biggest flavours in confectionery.
These colourful slices balance juicy fruit flavour with a tangy sugar coating that keeps you reaching for another.
It's very difficult to stop at one.
Why people love them
- Refreshing watermelon flavour
- Soft bite
- Just the right amount of fizz
Perfect for: Fruity sweet lovers.
3. Twin Cherries
A proper Pick n Mix classic.

Nobody has ever looked at a Pick n Mix bag afterwards and thought, "I wish I'd chosen fewer cherries."
Perfect for: Traditional Pick n Mix fans.
4. Strawberries
Simple?

6. Peach Rings
Peach Rings have become increasingly popular over the last few years.

8. Fried Eggs
Despite the name, nobody's adding these to their fry-up.
These soft foam sweets have been part of Pick n Mix displays for decades and continue to win over every new generation of sweet lovers.
They prove that not every great sweet needs a fizzy coating.
